Dr Sam Amadi, Chairman, Nigeria Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC), on Monday at a town hall meeting in Minna said electricity generation nationwide would hit 12,000 mega watts before the end of 2016.
According to him the commission had issued licences to private power plant operators for generation of over 20,000 megawatts of power within the next three years.
"Life has thought us that nothing is impossible, we can make 30,000 mega watts within the next one year if we want.
"Already we have issued licence to investors to generate over 20,000 mega watts before 2016.
“I am sure that with all the efforts put in place, our power generation will surely surpass our target by 2016," he said.
